The estate was lost during World War II and later recovered in the 1960s. Since 2004, it has been overseen by Chiara Ciavolich and her husband, Gianluca. Today, the family cultivates about 35 hectares of vineyards across their Loreto Aprutino and Pianella estates, and also tends roughly 1,000 olive trees for olive oil production.
"Cerasuolo is the wine that was once offered to guests to welcome them and to demonstrate how good they had been during the harvest. The grapes are those of the youngest rows of the estate and they are hand-picked and crushed-destemmed and the must is left in contact with the skins for about 8 hours and then vinified in white. It is then left to ferment at a controlled temperature in stainless steel where it remains until January/February, when it is bottled. Splendid pink reflections and light fruity and floral aromas, typical of the variety, are confirmed on the palate. Fresh, fruity and savory, it always invites you to the next sip." - Ciavolich
